I want to create a batch file that moves all the files in this

  • 0

I want to create a batch file that moves all the files in this directory to its father directory. Like for example if I have a directory ” Something ” that contains files :

…New Folder/Something

And I want to move the files in ” Something ” to New folder.

Is there such a command?

Thanks a bunch 🙂

    Presuming you’re talking about Windows batch files, move *.* ..\ should do the trick.

    Edit: For example, if you opened cmd, you could input:

    cd C:\New Folder\Something
    move *.* ..\
    

    which would move all files in C:\New Folder\Something into its ‘father’ directory.
